07.28.17 | Interesting picks Doof, much to dig here. I especially trust u in anything 90s related. | DoofusWainwright
07.28.17 | Thanks, I apologise for the bloat in the 90s - just so much in those years due to nostalgia as well as outright quality | DoofusWainwright
07.28.17 | This list goes from the first album I loved at 8 years old (The The 'Infected') to an album I discovered just over a week ago (Doc Corbin Dart 'Patricia') | RadicalEd
07.28.17 | pretty cool list. we have a few of the same picks. (1967, 72, 76, 91 for example) Also quiet a few of your picks are among my honorable mentions. | hogan900

07.29.17 | It's amazing that Doof came into the future a year ago just to copy your format so he could copy it again today. | Frippertronics
